We had visitors at the museum not long ago who have been to that memorial. I looked it up online that night and it’s beautiful. It would be nice to be rich and be ale to travel all around to check out the different memorials and museums across the country, and that’s one I’d definitely go to.

Getting the chance to be around D-Day vets IS humbling, isn’t it?

I’m still going through the D-Day 24 Hours videos tonight and the more I watch, the more humbled I’ll be in the future should I have the opportunity to meet any more of those vets. I’m learning so much more than I ever thought I’d know. These two men put a LOT of effort into this video project.

Yes, it so very much is.
Considering less than 3,000 D Day vets survive, I’ve probably seen my last of them.
Considering there are only approximately 167,000 WW 2 vets left they’ll be hard enough to find.
